We hope you’re enjoying a relaxed and lovely summer – savor this time filled with Fourth of July parties,

barbecues, and other fun.

Come visit our showroom soon! We’d love to see you, and we have tons of gorgeous, summery blooms perfect for outfitting your next party or offering as a host/hostess gift.

If you’re planning a party – whether a bridal or baby shower, a birthday party, or an open house – give us a call first thing. We are party and event experts and can help you not only with a floral decorating scheme but also with some of the other details of the event, too! Let us handle the details so you can just relax and enjoy.

If you haven’t been by to check out our green and blooming plant selection, be sure to do so. Summer is a great time to add some of these awesome plants to your home. They offer a fresh and summery addition to any room, and many varieties are excellent indoor air cleaners.

Many indoor houseplants also enjoy and benefit from a summer vacation outside. If you have plants you’d like to summer outside, we can help you determine whether your particular plant varieties need a sunnier or a shadier spot outdoors.

Happy July!
